Answer:
<u>The price of oranges is US$ 2 per pound and the price of bananas is US$ 1 per pound.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Bananas and oranges bought by Nancy:
Oranges = 7 pounds
Bananas = 3 pounds
Cost = US$ 17
2. Bananas and oranges bought by Nancy's husband:
Oranges = 3 pounds or 3x
Bananas = 6 pounds or 6y
Cost = US$ 12
3x + 6y = 12 (Dividing by 3 at both sides of the equation)
x + 2y = 4
x = 4 - 2y
3. Total Purchases:
Oranges = 10 pounds or 10x
Bananas = 9 pounds or 9y
Cost = US$ 29
10x + 9y = 29
10 (4 - 2y) + 9y = 29 (Replacing x with 4 - 2y from 2nd purchase)
40 - 20y +9y = 29
-11y = 29 - 40
- 11y = - 11
y = 1 (Dividing by -11 at both sides)
<u>Pound of bananas = US$ 1</u>
10x + 9 (1) = 29 (Replacing y by 1 in the original formula)
10x + 9 = 29
10x = 20
x = 2 (Dividing by 10 at both sides)
<u>Pound of oranges = US$ 2</u>
